There's no defense possible against opponent playing Mouth of Sauron last turn.WR: All "Lieutenants" (of Morgul, Dol Guldur and Angmar) and "The Mouth" are in play at their home sites.
The Mouth text is the following (bold mine) :
I propose to add the following sentence :Unique. Manifestation of Mouth of Sauron. +2 direct influence against any faction. Tap during your organization phase to move one resource or character from your discard pile to your play deck and reshuffle.
Return The Mouth to your hand when Mouth of Sauron is played; you may automatically transfer one item he bears to a character in the same company (discard the rest).

Otherwise, The Mouth is tapped if at Barad-dur.
